| 22nd November 2008 Bernie Kreiner | You've added lots of places to my BUCKET list! - From: Surviving Iran Meghan and Kwesi: I'm envious of your wonderful trip and experiences, but happy for you both having them. Your adventures will be valuable memories for years to come, and I'm happy to experience some things vicariously thru your postings and pictures. Bernie |
| 15th October 2008 Uncle David | - From: Surviving Iran Hi Meghan and Kwensi Enjoying all your stories and the continuing playback from the trip. What an unbelievable experience. Stay well and stay in touch. David |
| 15th October 2008 Mike Turcotte | Iran, too cool! - From: Surviving Iran Wow, I thought Iran would be a scary place to visit. I guess if you were Americans it may cause some issues. I can't wait for more pictures! We will have to trade when you get back, I have about 1500 of Ireland - only two weeks though - great place to visit! I hope the rest of your trip goes well. Take care! |
| 9th October 2008 Sean Murray | Need To Rent a Hall and Projector - From: Strolling through the Stans... When you get back, someone with a large living room and a projector should host a "Relive the Journey Party" to look at all the pictures and hear the stories. |
| 5th October 2008 Lee | Where the photos ! - From: Strolling through the Stans... I know you where have slow internet connection... keep post once you have chance ! Enjoy traveling ! |
| 15th September 2008 Jason | Awesome! - From: Up, down, all around! As usual, I am 100% jealous. Nicely done, all around. Strangely enough, the last time I got an e-mail from Kyrgyzstan, it was from a buddy of mine who wasn't "officially" there. |
| 12th September 2008 Evelyn | updates - From: Up, down, all around! Hi Meghan and Kwesi, glad to hear you're still surviving the camping! Geoff and I got back from Yellowstone last week and we camped for 7 days. It was sooo cold that I think we were happy to be done with the camping! I don't know that Geoff would survive a much longer camping experience! haha :) Can't wait to see pics... hope you make it to Kazahkstan too... then you can make disparaging comments about Uzbekistan a la Borat! |
| 12th September 2008 ahli chung | Central Asia ! - From: Up, down, all around! It's always on my travel list ! Central Asia ! cant wait to see your photos ! keep post !good luck and take care. Lee |

Take care of yourselves - let me know if you need anything - like TP for your bungholios...love ya! MJ and Dirk |
| 27th August 2008 Sean Murray | Very Cool - From: On the road again... Im getting more jealous by the entry. Hey Kwesi, you should try out for the "Gladiators" TV show as the Dark Knight, although you might want to lighten up the outfit for the events involving water or it could be a short carreer. |
| 23rd August 2008 Susan Burke | WOW!!! - From: On the road again... Love the pictures! The great wall of China is so amazing. Next time, I will gladly carry your suitcases or backpacks, what an amazing adventure |
| 22nd August 2008 Phyllis | - From: On the road again... The pictures are great and your comments are better. Glad you're having a great time. Have fun and keep the updates coming. |
| 17th August 2008 Lori Dawn | Amazing - From: On the road again... Once again loving the blog...you are doing an awesome job summing everything up and of course the pics are a treat.

| 14th August 2008 MJ at OPTI | Miss you around here! - From: On the road again... What an amazing job you've done with the blog! Not much to report - a lot of organizational changes - everyone's holding their breath for first oil Sep 15. Very quiet while folks are wrapping up the summer with vacations etc. We have a new benefits plan effective Sep 1 so you'll need to contact me if you need to claim anything for travel insurance. Love ya and take care! MJ and Dirk |

| 14th August 2008 Evelyn Tanaka | - From: On the road again... Hahahaha, I love the pictures of you guys dressed as soldiers. Hope to see more costume pictures soon! I know that's a big thing in China. In other news, Canada still has NOT won a gold medal at the Beijing Olympics. Even all the "stan" countries in Central Asia are doing better than us! |

| 1st August 2008 bernie k | I'm jealous already!! - From: Mountain Summer Resort Hi Meghan and Kwesi: You describing China in your first part of trip makes me envious already, wish I could see and experience what you are. Not surprised, but hope you don't get tired of Kwesi being a photo-tourist attraction. (Couldn't have picked a more handsome guy, anyway!!!) Jane and I just got from Yukon and would have wanted some of the heat of China, it was an unusually cold July for them but the sites were first rate, particularly the tundra Mountains of Tombstone Park 75 km up the Dempster Highway and the Salmon spawning viewing at Stewart/Hyder off the Portalnad Sound below Alaska panhandle. Anyway, thanks for adding me to your blog, and I do wish you both a great trip, hoping CAPRICE knows the road better than her(?) efforts to get out the parking lot!! Bernie |
| 29th July 2008 Erin Shepherd | wow!! - From: Attempt to upload pictures! Hi Meghan and Kwesi, These pictures are fabulous! My jealousy grows with every blog update. I have long dreamt of the Great Wall. I love your pictures of it. I must hear all about it! When is suits you, of course. Winnipeg is hot and humid these days. It sure is summer. We have rented a cabin in Whiteshell Provincial Park (near the Ontario border) for a week in August. I can hardly wait. Take care and enjoy every moment! Erin (& Mat) |
| 28th July 2008 Jason Watt | Smog - From: Attempt to upload pictures! Either you were a lot farther from Beijing when you saw the Great Wall than I was (which is quite likely) or the smog situation has improved (HA!) because you can actually see blue sky in your pics. |
| 27th July 2008 Yitzik | Great Photos - From: Attempt to upload pictures! Hi Meghan and Kwesi, It seems like you are having lots of fun. I’m jealous. Keep updating us and uploading these great photos. Yitzik |
| 22nd July 2008 suzies | Have a nice trip! - From: Mountain Summer Resort Hey there Meghan, thanks for adding me to this blog, always nice to "hear" traveling stories. I am sorry for your husband, but I remember going through the same thing in Japan (Tall blond girl, quite the sore thumb). I hope he is taking it on the bright side, kinda feel like a movie star :) Hope you will have a blast, be well. Suzie |
| 22nd July 2008 Wayne | Kwesi the model - From: Mountain Summer Resort I am looking forward to seeing the pictures Kwesi. I would also like to see a picture of you being in a picture. I can tell the folks here you are an asian pop star. I can start a whole rumour with that...just released a single...on your first tour. lol. Enjoy the Great Wall. |
| 22nd July 2008 Sean Murray | Waiting for those pictures - From: Mountain Summer Resort Cant wait to see the pictures. I am having trouble living vicariously through you guys without the pictures. You didnt have to save up so much money, you could have just charged to have a picture with kwesi along the way. Talk about self employed. |
| 22nd July 2008 Evelyn | Hey - From: Mountain Summer Resort Hey now at least Kwesi knows what it's like to be an Asian/white person in Ghana. I made babies cry in Ghana! :) |
| 22nd July 2008 Amy | - From: Mountain Summer Resort no, it's different from Chengdu. |
| 21st July 2008 Sheldon | Very cool - From: China here we are -:) Wow. Great area. lots to see. And they are suppose to be making it less polutted in Beijing. Have a great time. Looking forward to reading more... ;) |

| 18th July 2008 Kim Steppan | Wow - From: China here we are -:) Sounds like an interesting time. Tell Qwasi not to wave his hands around too much, might get him in trouble, instead of food, you never know with those orientals, ha! ha! Thanks for keeping us posted, we can live our lives vicariously through you two ! Kim and Ted |

Have an amazing trip, I know you will have a great time and will be recording these moments for the rest of your lives. Hey Meghan, give Kwesi a hand if you need to load any luggage on a train, eh? JK! Enjoy yourselves and remember this will be a L-E-A-R-N-I-N-G experience and one that will test your patience. Keep up the good humour and all shall be good. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Cariñosamente, Corisandra y su tribu |
